To the uninitiated, it may appear that
neo-cons hate the UN, and that US foreign policy is counter UN. The truth is that any anti-UN sentiment expressed by neo-cons is just rhetoric to appease a minority in the Republican party who are in fact, anti-UN. In reality it's more of the same dialectical "good cop/bad cop", whereby Bush is assuming the role of "bad cop". His pre-emptive wars, his apparent thumbing his nose at the United Nations, and his refusal to sign the Kyoto treaty, among other things, has caused the US to be viewed as a pariah on the world stage. This backlash has actually resulted in an empowered UN which is now openly talking about <A href="http://www.house.gov/paul/tst/tst2006/tst030606.htm"" target=_blank>global taxation.
His father, George H.W. Bush was an ambassador to the United Nations, and routinely sung its praises. I have numerous videos featuring this. Just read the transcript of his <A href="http://www.sweetliberty.org/issues/war/bushsr.htm" target=_blank>September 11th, 1990 speech.
I've studied politics and international finance for 11 years. The Republican party is pro-UN, and pro-big government, just like the democrats. Any differences are superficial. Such is the nature of the liberal/conservative false-paradigm.
